Coverslip thickness
Objective lenses designed for use with 170 µm coverslips(i.e. considered in the optical calculation of the lens)
Some lenses are equipped with an adjustable collar correcting for different thickness
Mismatch causes
o spherical and chromatic aberration
o spread of focus spot
o loss in resolution
o intensity decreases
o distortion of structures inside deeper layers of the sample
15 µm cover slip deviation approx. deteriorates ½ of resolution & intensity

Tips and tricks I
Carry out your stainings similar to regular fluorescent imaging. Good samples in regular fluorescence imaging are also suitable for STED imaging.
Check the mounting medium for compatibility with the fluorescent dyes (especially concerning the large Stoke’s shift dyes) and doesn’t show high levels of auto-fluorescence.
Recommended mounting media are mowiol, 86% glycerol, Prolong Goldand TDE, with or without anti-fade agents.
Vectashield isn’t compatible with large Stoke’s shift dyes.
Use sequential acquisition for 2 color STED imaging.
Labeling procedure and density may influence image quality.

•TDE, Sigma, #88559) has been used with excellent results (Staudt T, Lang MC, Medda R, Engelhardt J, Hell SW (2007).
“2,2'-thiodiethanol: a new water soluble mounting medium for high resolution optical microscopy.” Microsc Res Tech. 70(1):1-
9.). The TDE concentration must be gradually enhanced to obtain a final refractive index of 1.514, which is reached using a
TDE concentration of 97%. Sequential steps in TDE 50%, 70% (15 minutes at each step), then in 97% + antifade as final
mounting media must be undertaken
•If using TDE, the coverslip must be sealed using invisible nail
Mounting media must have antifade freshly mixed in it.
•N-propyl gallate (NPG, 4%) while not very soluble, is non-toxic and can be used on live cells.
•DABCO (2.5%) is a well-known antifade.

Tips and tricks II
Bleaching rate of fluorescent proteins and dyes are directly correlated with the pixel dwell time. Fast scan speed with higher number of averaging are more gentle to the fluorophore and thus may produce a higher number of frames before bleaching.

Tips and tricks II
Bleaching rate of fluorescent proteins and dyes are directly correlated with the pixel dwell time. Fast scan speed with higher number of averaging are more gentle to the fluorophore and thus may produce a higher number of frames before bleaching.
Signal to noise ratio (SNR) is correlated to the pixel size. Bigger pixel give “brighter” images. Oversampling of at least 2 is still recommended
Slightly reduce STED depletion power for better SNR. Compromising the resolution with lower STED intensities may increase SNR.
Change the pinhole size. Increasing the pinhole size may increase the SNR in samples that aren’t too densely labeled.
Consider the use of lower excitation power and accumulation with low noise detectors (HyD and APD at low gains).
